Wendy Wood

Wendy Wood (born Gwendoline Emily Meacham) (1892 – June 1981) was a campaigner for Scottish independence and founder of the Scottish Patriots. An eccentric and colourful figure, she was also an artist and writer, and her antics often created controversy.

Biography

Wood was born in Kent, England, before her parents moved to South Africa, where her father was a brewery manager and landscape painter, and was brought up in the latter country. Wood adopted her mother's maiden name in 1927 to emphasize her artistic connections. Her mother's father was the sculptor Samuel Peploe Wood, and his brother was the painter Thomas Peploe Wood. Her birth name was Gwendoline Meacham. If challenged as to her Scottish birthright, she would reply, 'One does not have to be a horse to be born in a stable', echoing the old proverb that is sometimes misattributed to Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington, albeit for a different purpose.

Background

Prior to her current position, Wood held faculty positions at University of Wisconsin−Milwaukee, Texas A & M University as the Ella C. McFadden Professor of Liberal Arts, and Duke University, where she was the James B. Duke Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience.
